On the establishment of the 3D Advisory Board and
the addition of the two industry elites, Mr.
Kingsley Leung, Chairman and Co-founder of Great Bay Bio, said: "The
arrival of Dr. Su and Mr. Wang is undoubtedly one of the most important
milestones of Great Bay Bio. I am very grateful and honored to have such
high-caliber and brilliant individuals become the first members of the Advisory
Board. One school of thought of innovation is Recombinant Innovation; the idea in which innovation breakthrough
does not come from facile forms of creativity or out-of-the-box thinking, but
from combining old ideas together to form new ones that fit the context of
need. Actually many of today's innovation follows this school of thought, such
as the first smartphone; a combination of "older" innovation from different
fields and disciplines to form a world-changing device. We believe that the
best innovation comes from collaboration between people from different
backgrounds and expertise, and this is why we have structured our Advisory
Board this way. The challenge of making traditional high-cost CMC cheap is a difficult
one to solve, and that is why we believe Recombinant Innovation is our best
shot of tackling it."
